The present invention provides a retractable tool support for mounting on a wall above a shop floor and which is movable between a stored position and an use position. The retractable tool support comprises a linkage mount, a tool mount, a leg, a linkage, a latch means, and biasing means for biasing the tool support towards the stored position thereby counterbalancing the weight of the t ool support. The retractable tool support is movable between a stored position with the tool carrier above the linkage mount and adjacent the wall such that a bottom en d of the leg is spaced upwards from the supporting surface, and an use position with the tool carrier spaced downwards and forwards of the stored position and outwards from the wall with the bottom end of the leg lies in contact with the shop floor . The tool carrier supports a tool such that the tool carrier and tool remain in a des ired orientation when the linkage is moved between the retracted and use positions. The latch means releasably secure the linkage means in the stored position, and bias the tool support towards the stored position.
